Change is inevitable

All living things, including human beings, go through many stages of metamorphosis through out their entire life time. From fetus to baby, to toddler, to child, to adolescence, to adult, to middle age, to old age and to corpse. Together with this physical and physiological changes, our mental and behavior change in capacity and capability to adept to our needs in the ever evolving and challenging environment.

At times, we find it difficult to change and we thirst to rely on other people to force such changes. Some people find it easy. Some people blame their incapacity for change.

Incapacity is only lame excuse. The most important element is our determination to change. With great determination we need perseverance and toleration. We need to fight our self conscious and many other external factors. At most time, our self conscious is influenced and heavily woven with external factors, for instance, the surrounding environment and our peers. Sometimes we are reluctant to sacrifice our peers because that is the most precious we ever have.

To sacrifice the peers, it is often a no-no thing in young adults. They are afraid of losing friends and becoming lonely. They are afraid of their peers criticizing.

For many people first time leaving their home (or parents) creates an illusion of independence and freedom. But deep inside their heart, a strong bond with their far away home urge for more attention from/to their parents. Consequently, this bonding builds up a sense of reliance, a barrier to change.

All these are human psychology and social implication that influence our behavior and the way we learn. But change is inevitable…
